1. Commeration of the Golden Anniversary of a Classic Partnership Marker

Inscription. 1954-2004

Presented to Athens Clarke-County by the Commanding Officer of the U.S. Navy Supply Corps School in commemoration of the Golden Anniversary of a Classic Partnership.

For half a century, the U.S. Navy has teamed with Athens-Clarke County and the State of Georgia to create an outstanding academic and community environment. Thousands of officers, enlisted, and civilians have trained in the heart of Georgia to become the military's business executives and logistics leaders. These servicemen and servicewomen have enriched this city and gone on to leadership positions in the military, government, business, and our nation's communities. We are truly appreciative of the atmosphere and opportunities provided by Athens.

Erected 2004.
